AESRD has okayed TRI- County Snowmobile club to open the Ministik gates on Friday January 26,2018.

Gregs unlocking gates now.
Snowing hard at Ministik
can barely make it down the county roads as nothing is plowed yet.

Please stay on trails and watch for ice heaves on the lakes.

Thanks
Brian

We got started at 8:00am Saturday morning
warmed up the groomer
got the groomer trailer
loaded up the groomer onto the trailer
went to parking lot 33 on north side, truck was pushing snow with bumper and got stuck
So unloaded the groomer at parking lot entrance at 10:00am.
5 hours to clear the parking lot 33, there is that much snow
3:00pm hooked up the drag and drag trailer brought it over to parking lot 33
unloaded the drag off the drag trailer
6:00pm Greg started grooming Ministik till 2:00am - 8 Hours grooming the North Section both directions

This was an 18hour day for us with the Bombardier B180 running 16 hours - clearing the parking lot and grooming trails
The groomer used about 160 litres of Diesel today

A lot of hard work but very excited that Ministik is open, grooming trails and sledding on flat groomed trails

ENJOY
